Press Release (Sep 16,2011)
Nuclide Analysis Results of Radioactive Materials in the Air at the Site of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (175th release)
 
On March 22, 2011, as a part of monitoring activity of the surrounding
environments, we conducted nuclide analyses of radioactive materials
contained in the air which was collected at the site of Fukushima Daiichi
Nuclear Power Station, which was damaged by the Tohoku-
Chihou-Taiheiyou-Oki Earthquake. As a result, radioactive materials were
detected and therefore, we summarized the results and reported them to
Nuclear and Industry Safety Agency (NISA) as well as to the government of
Fukushima Prefecture.

The analyses results of the three nuclides (Iodine-131, Cesium-134 and
Cesium-137) are to be released as fixed figures and the other nuclide
figures are to be revaluated.
                                                    (Previously announced)

On September 14 and 15, 2011, we conducted a nuclide analysis of
radioactive materials contained in the air which was collected at the site
of Fukushima Daiichi and Daini Nuclear Power Stations. As a result, the
radioactive materials described in the appendices were detected. 

Sampling of 2 - 3 km offshore of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station
site, which was planned on the day before yesterday, was not conducted due
to severe weather condition.  

We reported the above results to NISA as well as to the government of
Fukushima Prefecture today. 

We will continuously conduct the same sampling surveys.
